Carnegie Foundation Summit on Improvement in Education

Join us in downtown San Francisco on March 22-24, 2016 for
the Carnegie Foundation Summit on Improvement in Education. This annual
convening of innovative thinkers and dedicated practitioners offers the
community the opportunity to gather and work together to transform teaching and
learning.

Our education institutions confront increasing pressure to
educate all students towards much higher educational goals than ever before.
This is driven by demands for a more engaged citizenry, for higher levels of
knowledge and workforce skills, increased global educational and economic
competition, and the need to prepare for the rapid societal changes brought
about by technology.

These expectations exist in an environment of limited
resources and the challenges of engaging more and diverse students. Absent a
more responsive, agile approach to research and development, our educational
achievements will never meet our aspirations. We need to accelerate how the
education field learns
to improve.
